[ send me this essay ]
15 pages in length. Teaching children the value of social behavior is often challenging at best and downright difficult at worst. The extent to which parents, teachers and family members work in a synergistic fashion to impart this vital lesson for living within a civilized society is both grand and far-reaching; that some children require an extra push toward achieving this objective speaks to the need for a more creative approach. Dramatic play - a concept that thrusts children into an imaginary setting replete with costumes, storylines and fun - has proven quite effective in cultivating the foundations of acceptable behavior by virtue of encouraging cooperation, not the least of which includes the concept of sharing. Bibliography lists 17 sources.
